Yes, he has done better than anybody thought possible, probably the best that could be done.

However, that "best" consists of pushing all the state's financial problems off into the future by more borrowing. Not a single hard decision has been made yet.

California's system of government is still totally broken. Because of the 2/3 majority rule, and term limits, and the eternal prohibition on the legislature modifying proposition votes (such as 2/3 majority and term limits and Prop. 13 as applied to commercial property).

Eventually there will a come a crunch which will be very unpleasant. I hope Arnold is still governor then, because we'll need somebody with amazing bridge-building skills.
